The Gazette is naming and shaming these criminals locked up in November.

The lags were jailed for a variety of crimes carried out across Teesside.

Here is a collection of photographs of some of the offenders sentenced.

They include:

1. Paul Luttman, 47, of Cedarhurst Drive, Lingdale, was jailed for two years and eight months after admitting attempted robbery when he grabbed at a till in Whistlestop Wines in Saltburn. Luttman was wearing a hood and said he was heavily drunk after a wedding reception and a cider binge.

He is already serving a two year sentence for burglary.

2. Joseph Sample, 36, admitted burglary, dangerous driving, driving while disqualified and having no insurance after crashing a car into a metal bench, following a 17 mile police chase through Middlesbrough. He had belongings on him from a burglary carried out in Clive Road, Eston.

Yorke, of Tollerton, North Yorkshire, will also have to sign the sex offenders’ register for the rest of his life for the “unpleasant and nasty” rape - and was called the “most stupid defendant” Judge Sean Morris had ever come across, as he’d admitted the crime to his victim before trying to deny it in court.

But a judge said he got off lightly, because the cannabis at his farm in Loftus was so badly produced.

He was also disqualified from driving for two-and-a-half years.

8. Philip Gainford, 30, of Troutpool Close, Hartlepool, was jailed for three years and four months after admitting two charges of sexual activity with a child, four of causing or inciting a child to engage in sexual activity, one of breaching a sexual harm prevention order and one of possessing indecent photographs of children.

Gainford, who will sign the sex offenders’ register for 10 years, used the online name ‘iamsoevil’ to chat to the underage girl online.

9. Shaban Hussain, 43, Upton Street, central Middlesbrough, was jailed for seven years after admitting two charges of possession of heroin with intent to supply.

He was twice caught by police in his car with heroin on the streets of Gresham, Middlesbrough.

13. Terence Fox, 29, of Surrey Street, Ayresome, Middlesbrough, jailed for two years and four months after he pleaded guilty to possession of Class A drugs heroin and crack cocaine with intent to supply.

He had drugs stored in two Kinder Eggs - plastic containers that usually contain children’s toys - when police arrested him at a central Middlesbrough address.

14. Predatory paedophile Gerald Martin, 66, was jailed for 20 years after being found guilty by a jury of 14 charges of indecent assault, false imprisonment and offences which would today be classified as rape and attempted rape.

The well-known funeral director, of Valley Close, Hartlepool, targeted five vulnerable teenage boys in the late 1970s, 80s and mid 1990s.

One of his victims was assaulted at a Boys Brigade meeting, where Martin volunteered, after visiting with an interest in joining the Christian group.
